1) in emacs, I press C-space, then go with the pointer somewhere
     then in bash terminal, outside of emacs, command "xclip -o" returns 
text marked. This is OK.

2) in emacs: M-x mark-end-of-sentence. "xclip -o" again returns text 
marked. OK.

3) in emacs: M-x mark-word. "xclip -o" does NOT return text marked. Not OK.

What is even stranger: in emacs: M-x mark-word, then additionally moving 
the pointer with arrow keys in either direction. "xclip -o" returns text 
marked. This time OK!!!

`mark-word' is not the only mark-* comand that behaves this way.

I observe it both on emacs 24.3 (built from original sources without any 
debian/ubuntu modifications) and emacs 24.4.50.1 built from yesterday's 
bzr trunk. Ubuntu 12.04.

regards,
Mat
